Objective
Skeletal muscle adiposity (myosteatosis) is recognized as a major risk factor for cardiometabolic diseases, and it increases with aging. The relationship of myosteatosis with cognitive impairment is unknown.
Methods
The association of calf myosteatosis (measured by computed tomography‐derived skeletal muscle density; higher values indicate less myosteatosis) with cognitive function was...
Objective
The aim of this study was to determine whether displacement of sedentary time with activity was cross‐sectionally associated with less adiposity among Black Caribbean men in the Tobago Health Study.
Methods
Objectively assessed activity was categorized as sedentary (< 1.5 metabolic equivalents; METs), light (≥ 1.5 to < 3.0 METs), or moderate‐to‐vigorous (≥ 3.0 METs) using the SenseWear...
Objective
Decreased radiodensity of adipose tissue (AT) located in the visceral AT (VAT), subcutaneous AT (SAT), and intermuscular AT (IMAT) abdominal depots is associated with hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and insulin resistance independent of AT volumes. These associations were sought in African‐ancestry men, who have higher risk for type 2 diabetes and have been underrepresented in previous...
